What is Design of Hydrogen Storage Alloys in View of Chemical Bond Between Atoms about?
The chemical interactions operating in hydrogen storage alloys are simulated by the DV-X molecular orbital method, using tetrahedral or octahedral model clusters. It is found that hydrogen interacts more strongly with hydride non-forming elements, B (e.g., Ni, Fe) than hydride forming elements, A (e.g., La, Ti, Mg), in agreement with our previous calculations of hydrogen storage alloys (e.g., LaNi , TiFe, Mg Ni). However, it is noted that such a B}H interaction is not dominant unless A elements exist in the neighborhood, so that both A and B are indeed essential elements for hydrogen storage alloys. Also, it is shown that the A/B compositional ratio of hydrogen storage alloys can be understood in terms of a simple parameter, 2 Bo(A}B)/[Bo(A}A)#Bo(B}B)], where the Bo(A}B), Bo(A}A) and the Bo(B}B) are the bond strengths between atoms given in the parentheses.
